No hope in groups 1-40?

[idontbuff]

yak procs are great for building aggro. Had some great warrior tanks in solb that were aggro magnets.

I've got up to level 28 pretty much solely grouping. I've probably had 2 groups that were straight up bad. The rest were great.

One of the two bad groups involved a tank who was perma-half-AFK

At 37 (or whenever they proc) if you're not using dual yaks to keep aggro you're doing it wrong.

Also if your group isn't letting you keep aggro with dual yaks they're doing it wrong.

I never rolled a tank, but Crookstinger procs a lot at any level. I imagine a pair of poison dot procs would hold some decent aggro.

not a great choice. dots not a good idea, and it isn't a great aggro proc.

i liked the pgt as a low lvl aggro proc in classic. stun whips. obsidian shard. yaks.

tons of decent ratio stuff with aggro procs in kunark as well.

I've been grouping with a RL friend who plays a warrior since I started my rogue, he's now lvl 45. We ran into this same problem until his Yak started procing. It doesn't always mean the player is junk, it is just sometimes hard for a warrior to keep agro for example from my rogue when i'm constantly BSing and proccing snare from my SBD. It gets better man trust me.

Yeah my rl buddy who plays here every once in a while and he had a couple of deso weps and he's always played warriors but couldn't keep aggro here, had a monk in our grp pulling and getting frustrated with him hehe. Proc seems to be ftw although as people here have said the good aggro procs are not usually until at least the mid-late 30s [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

*edit* we were lvl 20ish in MM

Taunt does not work correctly on the server and is essentially broken at this time. This is fairly well known. Warriors don't start getting good aggro on p1999 until mid-40's when they can proc decent weapons.

I've been duoing my warrior with a cleric friend for about 40 levels now. I can tell you that even with just two of us and the cleric only healing/root CC it is sometimes a struggle to peel mobs off of him.

Biggest problem I've ever had grouping was people not even reading party chat to know what the hell was going on. Might as well be "semi-afk"

With decent enough communication skills and patients success can be made in any group.

Procs are clearly not a solution to warrior aggro while leveling. If you have a good group, you can kill stuff every 20 seconds. It takes something like 12 seconds to proc on average (even with 255 dex and two weapons). What finally helps warriors is when you hit 55 and the stuff you are killing has 7500+ HP and can't be disintegrated in seconds.
